Flora opens the door to her dorm room.
Her room is not there.
Instead, there is some sort of bar.
She eeps.
"What's going on?" she asks no-one in particular.
Well, since nothing bad is happening, she will just come in to investigate.
She's a Ravenclaw. She has a right to be curious.
She comes up to the Bar and says, "Anybody there?"

Flora pauses to think.
"Maybe there's some way to find out? Take a look at it somehow?"

"Then you have to think of everything for the way you look, don't you? I mean, I don't really blame you for wanting the things, they sound dead useful, but she has kinda spooked me." Cayra points at Leekath.
"Okay."
Amy floats back in. Through the door. Without opening it. "Hey, guys! The confirmation window works, I tried to give myself a going-through-walls power when I got lost in a cave, and it wouldn't let me do the wish until I thought it through!"

"For what value of 'thought it through'?" wonders Leekath.
"Well, I remembered to make it not drop me through the floor, remembered to make it react automatically to things that can hurt me, like knives and stuff, made an off switch, and a couple other things, I don't remember. But it was really thorough," says Amy.

"And a couple of other things you don't remember. You have powers and don't know what their properties even are."
"Well, I could do some kind of perfect memory?" She attempts to wish it and gets the confirmation window. It may take her a while to please it.

A new... person... trots into the bar.
"Goodness," she says, stopping a little ways in front of the door.
"Hello, unicorn! My name is Flora, the girl who's floating is Amy, the pale girl is Leekath and that's Cayra. What is your name?" asks Flora quietly.

"Blueberry," says the unicorn. "What sort of creatures are you all, if you don't mind my asking?"
affodell
"Humans, except I guess Leekath?"
"Vampire," says Leekath. "And don't tell the irresponsible kids over there," gesture, "about any sorts of magic that could possibly go wrong if wished onto a person who shouldn't have them and wielded by an irresponsible child."

"They've got some little hateful coins that they can make wishes on, and that one especially," Amy, "is not being careful with them by default."
"Are they literally telling you they hate us?" asks Flora.
"The confirmation window helps! I'll have you know I'm 17!" Amy defends herself. "I didn't make a very good first impression on Leekath, as you can see," she adds, to Blueberry.

"They hate everyone," Leekath says. "They calm down about it when they've been declawed."

"They have claws?" says Blueberry. "...Could someone explain these things in a more orderly fashion, please?"
"I'm just going to declaw all of them then, that's scary," says Flora. She does that.
"It goes like this: if you are minted, that is, you have the power to make coins, you can hurt yourself and make one of these." She demonstrates a triangle. Hers looks like a pale pink rose petal. "They can grant wishes, bigger and bigger the more points it has. Apparently, they're evil and hate everyone by default, but you can make the evil go away with a smaller coin. Or, apparently, you can do a whole batch when they're on the same level or bigger."
Amy has pleased her confirmation window. "Ooh, wow," she says. And rattles of the properties of her powers.

"And kamai, they wished kamai," says Leekath. "Which is not supposed to belong to random people who meet kyma in bars. It's being slowly and carefully rolled out in my world and isn't supposed to spread to any more without authorization from the gods of its originating world."

"I see," says Blueberry. "It does sound like it would be a bad idea to talk much about my magic, then."
Amy huffs. "I won't do it anymore, she just has a grudge against me."
"Oh, and don't use kamai around other people, Amy. It is dangerously contagious. The phenomenon is called spontaneous kamai, and it's hard to control," mentions Flora.

"And it requires supervision to even begin to learn to fix and even if they learn to fix it without major mishap it's months of work they shouldn't have to do," Leekath says.
"But we could un-kamai them if they didn't want it!" exclaims Amy.
"Maybe you could, maybe if you did that they would, I don't know, die for some reason, you can't un-kamai people that I've ever heard of and I would likely have heard of it!"
"Surely we could test it somehow?" says Amy.
Flora takes a handful of coins and wishes: if she has her hand in her pocket, (she does,) a red piece of paper should appear and if she does not, a green paper should appear. It takes a pentagon, and a red one appears. Pulls her hand out, green.
What's a good test? She hasn't been outside, so, red if it's sunny, blue if it's raining, green if it's cloudy, yellow for a combination of those, pink for something different.
Wish?
